Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-04-28 01:39:14 UTC
From iwdevtools on merge:
 * VDB: detected possibly incorrect RDEPEND (dev-libs/json-c-0.16)
 *  > dev-libs/libbsd

Seems right: https://github.com/json-c/json-c/commit/041cef434afe0d0c6da8b6ac1d1fa26087246dda.

    dev-libs/json-c: Drop automagic libbsd dependency
    
    The only use of libbsd seems to be for additional arc4random function,
    so let's entirely avoid depending on libbsd.
    
    Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/841401

Thanks for catching this, I missed it while diffing the changes between versions! I do need to start using iwdevtools more :D
